HAYNES Mashaz Hu9,,es,

Hon. a. ii. Hughes, jr., was an
nounced TO speak against the
amendment in Pulaski last Satur
day and the couaty chairman de-
tailed Rev. Il. +. Haynes to answer
him. Mr.. Haynes exceeded his au-
thorlty in that instead Of answering
him be rolled the willepus- wallapus
over him. We never saw a man as
badly worsted in debate. He made
the best of bad cause but he I'M
derrated his antagonist and left
gaps down all along the line-and
Haynes didn't miss g.p.
Hughes mission vas evidently to
the negroes. He addressed himself
especially to them and tried to
make them believe their freedom is
in danger. He said that MIR.
Haynes had fought once to perpet
uate slavery and he would re en-
slave the negroes again if he could,
and he strung out lot of misera-
bic bosh of this sort that sickened
all his decent auditors ami actually
turned men who were ants before
they heard him. The negroes near
ly ali left the room before Mr..
Haynes rejoined when be showed
that Arch Hughes himself was
rebel soldier and fought to perpetu-
ate slavery, that be once run for the
Legislature as a democrat and was
defeated and turned to get office.
Hughes declares that prohibition
is democratic trick. Vertrees de
clares it is republican trick.
w hich will you believer" scream
ed Mr.. Haynes. For my part i
believe neither"
Hughes blest the hour that
brought the train tina. was t. carry
him from the scene of his outrage
Gus rout and he skipped the court
room the worst whipped man that
ever Sneake0 out OF Pulaski.

The Cove Mountain.

The Baltimore Manufacturers
Record OF last week has the follow
ing correspondence from Pulaski:
The largest fruit farm in the
south, and the second largest in the
United States, | believe, is to be
planted near this city The projec
tors are Gen. w. Fl. jackson, presi-
dent, proprietor of the Belle Meade,
one of the finest stock farms OF the
,ountry; Maj, E. B. Stahlman, vice
president, third vice-president 0
the Louisville & Nashville Railroad
system; Capt. Jno. W. Morton,
general manager, Tennessee editor
Of the Farmers Home journal and
chief OF artillery for Forrest during
The war; MIR. Laps. d. McCord, sec
rotary, editor OF The PULASKI CITI-
ZEN; and Mr.. NJ. G. Fitzpatrick,
with the Giles National Bank as
treasurer. Il is called "The Cove
Mountain Fruit Farm" Five hun
dred acres OF land, the most of it
lying above the frost line, have been
bought on which the company pro-
poses to set $4,000 fruit trees.
They will also build cooling Houses
and provide every necessary appli-
ance for carrying on Che business
on gigantic scale. A stock com
pany is to be organized, and the
and farm stocked at 100000; and
the projectors will endeavor to
place the stock with fruit dealers in
ali the principal cities, so that they
may be interested and the product
may have preference IN the markets.
rhe lands are wonderfully rich and
are exactly suited to the purpose. A
vineyard of 10000 vines has been
bearing some eighteen years with
out failure, and being above frost
line and the magnificent coves that
| are troweled out Of the mountain at
intervals being so amply protected
by the ridges that divide them, the
crops will rarely, if ever, fail il
proper care is exercised, which will
be done, of course.
1t is expected, and certainly will,
that 1t will give an impetus to fruit
raising in this section that will re-
suit richly to our people. Giles
county is one of the richest in Ten
nessee, as the census shows, aad
she lies just on the borders of the
great iron and coal regions of Ala
bama (only 40 miles from Decatur,
and she is destined to be the garden
for these toilers in the mines and
furnaces.
| Giles county is the most i1vitiDg
field for men vao loye to work rich
land and raise fine stock in the
south. This is the hesd-quarter for
pacing stock of the world. Little

to maize it tie fruit country of the

will hurry it oa to the front.

The Free School in Danger.

The indications are that the ne
groes as a body will oppose prohi
bition. We have heard prominent
citizens of Pulaski who are stauncl
friends of the. free schools reason
thus: -, IL,
"lf the negroes vote to coGtinu(
a thing that threatens ruin to my
children, I'll retaliate by helping t.
abolish the free school"
There were 1852 colored children
in this district at a recent census
and they are coming in constantly
getting advantage OF as good aschoo
as man can teach free of cost. The
white people pay nearly ali the taxes
that keep up the schools, and there
are over twice as many colored as
white children. If the negroes 60
IN q body to vote to ruin the chill
dren of the white people, can not
they blame the white people if they
| retaliate.
What do the negroes propose to
make by the trade? 1t is carrying
Ehe thing too far perhaps to punish
them thus, but we warn them thai
their children are in danger.
Hughes told The negroes last Sat
2rday that he had done more for
them than all the balance Of his par
" in Tennessee aud that these
white people did nothing fer them
and wanted to put them back into
slavery, and several of the poor ig-
norant fools olafped and yelled
Did any negro in Giles county ever
see a five cent piece of Arch
Hughes money? Nary cent!
Ard the very white people that
be says do 2nthing for them are
keeping up their schools. When
black man wants dollar to keep
his children from starving does he
90 to men of the Arch Hughes
stamp? Nav, verify! He goes to
such men as FIELD Arrowsmith, VIII
Craig, L. w. Ewing. Two years ago
when the world froze up and the
negroes OF Pulaski were suffering,
public meeting of our white clti
zens was called and several hun
ired dollars in money and provis-
ons was subscribed and applied.
Was there man there of the Arch
Hughes stamp? Mo- He and his
kind would see you starve! And
yet you yell for him and 60 back
On your own white people who come
TO your aid when distress and ca
iamity befall you and who volunta
riiy educate your children.
Arch Hughes and his sort would
keep you poo, and degraded by
Whisky. He don't want you to be
educated for then you wouldn't be
fool enough to believe him and vel!
when he pulls your wool over your
eyes.
This threat to deprive you Of free
schools is no idle matter. We have
heard it se' iously mentioned. We
can break down the free schools in
Pulaski very easily if We try. 1t is
not fair perhaps to threaten thus
but we have heard it threatened
and we want to put the negroes on
their guard.
The whisky speaker in West
Tennessee said he wanted 10 keep
the negroes poor and degraded by
whisky so they would work cheap
op1 rayoair niyunrs
Whisky has done more to de
grade and debauch and keep the
negroes poor than all other things
together. tits worse than slavery
vas, and yet negroes want to con
tlnue it and they are going to vote
to force whisky on the white people
Do you suppose the whites are going
to stand still and LET you do it and
not strike back at your
1t is time for the intelligent col
'red men to bring this matter home
to their people.
